This book covers the emerging trends and technological innovations in libraries in the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). This book is designed to expose library and information science practitioners to the application of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, blockchain, virtual reality, augmented reality, smart cities and cloud computing to library operations and services. By emerging technologies, this means technologies whose development, practical applications and drawbacks are still largely unrealized and more knowledge about them is being actively discovered. Consequently, this book covers the application of different technologies to library operations as well as emerging innovations in libraries. It will bridge the knowledge gap between librarianship and emerging technological innovations.
This book will benefit librarians, information technology experts, LIS lecturers, students of library and information science, and researchers in general as exposes them to the current best global practices in the profession. Particularly, in the way emerging technologies are applied to library operations.
